  • Why I Prefer TomTom Over Garmin  [View article]
    Agree with several of the posts regarding how poor of an analysis this is - so let me add some fuel to the fire of this TOTAL nonsense of an article.
    Numbers straight from the article:
    Garmin sales of $912M
    PND sales of $751M.
    PND gross margin is only 23.3% or $175M
    The company has a total gross margin of 45%.
    YOU BOZO, THE MATH DOES'NT ADD UP!!!
    $912M total sales x 45% = $410 Total GM dollars
    $751M PND sales x 23.3% = $175 GM Dollars

    SO,
    $410M - $175M = $235M GM dollars gets generated from
    $912M - $751M = $161M in other sales

    So, I guess Garmin produces $161M in other sales and generates $235M in gross margin dollars from those sales???

    NOW THAT'S THE COMPANY I WANT TO INVEST IN!!!!!

    What a laughable analysis - ON MULTIPLE POINTS!!
